Lámurén × UAX: Echoes of Us
Echoes of Us was an intimate, sensory dining experience exploring the intersection of food, sound, and storytelling. Created in collaboration between Lamurén (a private dining brand) and UAX Studio (an artist-led sound project), the evening blended a multi-course Nigerian-inspired menu with curated music pairings and art direction that celebrated memory, connection, and emotion.
Guests moved through a narrative journey — each course ("track") was paired with a song reflecting themes like love, growth, healing, and identity. The experience invited reflection on moments of presence, gratitude, and connection through thoughtful visual, auditory, and culinary cues.
I led the creative direction and experience design, shaping every touchpoint from visual identity to tablescape styling to the experiential flow.

Creative Direction
The visual and spatial direction balanced warmth with intention — creating an atmosphere that felt intimate, grounded, and cinematic. Every detail was designed to support the narrative: candles for warmth, florals for texture, soft lighting to set the mood, and a trifold menu that doubled as a keepsake.
Key Design Decisions:
- Visual Identity: Designed the Echoes of Us wordmark and menu system — elegant, understated, rooted in emotion
- Tablescape & Environment: Sourced and styled florals, candles, and vases to create a textural, layered atmosphere
- Print & Production: Designed and produced trifold menus with song pairings and thematic prompts
- Experience Flow: Developed the narrative arc — guiding guests through courses paired with curated tracks (via QR code)
- On-Site Styling: Set up the space, adjusted lighting/mood flow, and ensured visual consistency across dining and listening zones
Impact
Echoes of Us became a model for how food, sound, and design could intersect to create meaningful, immersive experiences. The evening sparked conversations about memory, identity, and belonging — turning a dinner into a cultural moment.
Guests described the experience as "cinematic," "deeply personal," and "unforgettable" — proof that intentional design and storytelling can create emotional resonance far beyond the meal itself.
Digital Extension
Beyond the event itself, I designed Lamurén's website to reflect the same warmth, intention, and cultural grounding. The site serves as a digital home for the brand — showcasing upcoming events, services, and the story behind the food.
